description In an attempt to address some objections and criticisms by line personnel concerning survey questionnaires, issues basic to test and survey development were discussed in a nontechnical manner. Three major points were made. First, questionnaire construction requires extensive training in psychology, mathematics, and some aspects of computer science.

Finally, the authors specify that implementation of a survey should be based on evidence provided by the researchers that their questionnaires are psychometrically sound. (Author)
